Re: FV-QR (simon-says)

So I've searched the hell out of the Passat B5 forum, but no answer. Will a rear MKIV euro wiper fit?

Re: FV-QR (skidplate)

Different lengths maybe? And there's difference in what side it rests on depending on year.

and so you know, those impuls's have been sold already, and goin on a 5.5 passat..

Skidmark's? No worries, at the mention of getting wheels, the wife shot me the evil laser eye of death. So, it'll be a couple months before I run it back by her.

Right around the corner from my temporary Vancouver residence. I take my dog to the park right next to this. I think we both have cancer now.

You do realize you're staying here forever, right? The only way out is in a box.

And that is a nice dog park, damn big too.

It feels like I've been here forever. Closing on a short sale takes FOREVER! It's worth the hassle if it goes through.

Re: (zane!)

Yeah, but I've already been warned. When you drive a Passat like it was an asian car, then the gremlins attack!

Re: (Twelvizm)

Does anyone in the PDX/VAN area have a lowered B5/B5.5? I'd like to see how much different the ride is. This thing is a big squishy roll-box at stock height.

Re: (Twelvizm)

Dude, the Passat crowd is pretty interesting. I was just told that having your lights on all the time doesn't make them burn out any quicker than using them on occasion. Also, I was told regarding the air box:

you're best off leaving it alone. the engineers at audi/vw designed it that way for a reason.

You know, the same ones that designed the really crappy front control arms on the Passat and A4 and made it take an hour to get to the air filter?
Man, this is all a culture shock. No more of the "Bag and BBS it" crowd! Now it's the "Don't mess with VW engineering"
